Hey everyone,

A bit of a puzzle here, dont know if this is a JS problem or PHP or FF or .... 
just me.

(My money is on the last one :p )


Here's what I am trying to do:
In a form  I have a listbox with the values 1-5, and under the listbox i have a <TD> with the id of 
"recips" (like so: <TD id='recips">

I have a onChange event linked to the list box and depending on what number the 
client picks it should dynamically put the number of text boxes there, here is 
the JS code:

///// ############### Start JS code ############
function change_no_of_recipients()
{
var 
nr=document.mainform.no_of_friends.options[document.mainform.no_of_friends.selectedIndex].value;
if(nr>5){nr=5;} // max number of recipients
    var msg = "";

for (var x = 1; x <= nr; x++)
   {
   msg += '<table width="50%" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2">' +
  '<tr>' +
    '<td nowrap="nowrap">'+ x +'. Recipient\'s name:</td>' +
    '<td><input type="text" name="rec_name[]" id="rec_name[]" /></td>' +
    '<td nowrap="nowrap">Recipient\'s email:</td>' +
    '<td><input type="text" name="rec_email[]" id="rec_email[]" /></td>' +
  '</tr>' +
'<tr>' +
'</table>';
   }
document.getElementById('recips').innerHTML=msg;
}

///// ##################### End JS code ################

So far on the page everything is working, but when I click the submit button 
this is my PHP processing script:

<?php
print_r($_REQUEST);
?>


It shows me everything that has been submitted but NOT any of the above 
dynamically made boxes values... but get this, it DOES show me all values... in 
IE7 _not_ in FF (am using 2.0.0.13)

Anybody else face anything like this?
Is this a bug in FF? Is $_REQUEST wrong to catch this? Dont know what the @#$@ to do... ANY help even a link to a site which can shed a little light would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

/Ryan


Hi Ryan,

Since I'm relatively new to PHP I could be off on this, but I'd say yes, $_REQUEST is wrong. I would think you'd want to use $_POST to receive the incoming values from a form.
